Because the APC40/20 grid is 5 buttons high by 8 wide. By rotating it you get 8 Playlist tracks x 5 clips.gamecat666 wrote: im still unsure as to why the APC has the lighting of the patterns in a completely different rotation/orientation to the launchpad.
Gol decided it was better to have access to more tracks than clips.
Note that you can still scroll to expose more of each, it's just what is visible at any given time this affects.
